5.00Fantastic tour. Well worth the money. Very knowledgable driver who knew the troubles and the history of Ireland inside out. If you have any pre conceived ideas put them to one side and prepare to be educated.
Great tour!

5.00What a guy Sean was, I think any trip with him would be 100% worth it talk about value for money! This guy knows his stuff I thought I was clued up with a lot to do with this trip and he just leveled up again when they say every day is a school day when it comes to Sean that’s 100% true. Thanks again! Cab was spotless and he’s happy to answer any questions you have please do book with this guy he is Great!

5.00Sean was a great tour guide and though I knew much about the political history of the city, it was great for my 23-year old son to learn it comprehensively first-hand.
We were so lucky to learn...

5.00We were so lucky to learn about the Troubles from tour guide, Sean. We went into this experience with very minimal knowledge about this period and we left with context that explained the heaviness we felt in the city. Sean did an excellent job explaining the Troubles and we are so grateful to have learned more from an individual who experienced it firsthand. He made us laugh and want to cry!
We had a great tour from...
